Never touch the heating element or sides of 
the cigarette lighter; they are extremely hot. 
Hold the knob only.
Make sure that any children traveling with 
you do injure themselves or start a fire with 
the hot cigarette lighter.
When leaving the vehicle always remove the 
SmartKey or SmartKey with KEYLESS-GO* 
from the starter switch, take it with you, and 
lock the vehicle. Do not leave children

The lighter socket can accommodate 12V 
DC electrical accessories (up to a maximum of 
85 W) designed for use with the standard “ciga-
rette lighter” plug type. Keep in mind, however, 
that connecting accessories to the lighter socket 
(for example extensive connecting and discon-
necting, or using plugs that do not fit properly) 
can damage the lighter socket. With the socket 
damaged, the lighter may no longer be able to be 
placed in the heating (pushed-in) position, or the 
lighter may pop out too early with the lighter not 
hot enough.
To help avoid damaging the cigarette lighter 
socket, we recommend connecting 12V DC elec-
trical accessories designed for use with the stan-
dard “cigarette lighter” plug type to the 
12V power outlets (
whenever possible.

is being used extensively, the vehicle battery 
may become discharged.
